Juan Cole responds to Christopher Hitchens, with a lengthy, excruciatingly incoherent rant calling Hitchens a drunk, including gruesome photos of combat injuries, and concluding with, “One, two, three, four. We don’t want your stinking war!” Yes, really. UPDATE at 5/3/06 1:00:45 pm: The Kos Kidz are lapping it up: Daily Kos: Juan Cole ...

(Hat tip: Allah.) UPDATE at ...
